NCT00489541

Brief Summary

The purpose of the TAXUS PERSEUS Small Vessel trial is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the next-generation Boston Scientific TAXUS paclitaxel-eluting coronary stent system (TAXUS® ElementTM) for the treatment of de novo atherosclerotic lesions of up to 20 mm in length in native coronary arteries of ≥ 2.25 mm to \< 2.75 mm diameter.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • In-stent Late Loss Measured by Quantitative Coronary Angiography (QCA)

    Post-procedure minimum lumen diameter (mm) minus follow-up minimum lumen diameter as determined by quantitative angiography. Minimum lumen diameter is measured within the stent at each time point.

    9 months post-index procedure

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants With Target Lesion Failure (TLF) at 12 Months Post-index Procedure. TLF is Defined as Any Ischemia-driven Revascularization of the Target Lesion, Myocardial Infarction (Q-wave and Non-Q-wave), or Death Related to the Target Vessel.

    12 months post-index procedure

Study Arms (1)

TAXUS Element Stent System

EXPERIMENTAL
Device: Percutaneous Coronary Intervention (PCI) with paclitaxel-eluting stent (TAXUS Element) implantation

Interventions

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexall
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Subject is ≥ 18 years old
  • Eligible for percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI)
  • Documented stable angina pectoris (Canadian Cardiovascular Society \[CCS\] Classification 1, 2, 3, or 4) or unstable angina pectoris (Braunwald Class IB-C, IIB-C, or IIIB-C), or documented silent ischemia
  • Acceptable candidate for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG)
  • Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) is ≥ 30%
  • Subject (or legal guardian) understands the study requirements and the treatment procedures and provides written Informed Consent before any study-specific tests or procedures are performed
  • Subject willing to comply with all specified follow-up evaluations

You may not qualify if:

  • Contraindication to aspirin (ASA), or to both clopidogrel and ticlopidine
  • Known hypersensitivity to paclitaxel
  • Known allergy to stainless steel
  • Known allergy to platinum
  • Previous treatment of the target vessel with any anti-restenotic drug-coated or drug-eluting coronary stent
  • Previous treatment of the target vessel with a bare metal stent (BMS) within 9 months of the index procedure
  • Previous treatment of any non-target vessel with any anti-restenotic drug-coated or drug-eluting coronary stent within 9 months of the index procedure
  • Previous treatment with intravascular brachytherapy in the target vessel
  • Planned PCI or CABG post-index procedure
  • Planned or actual target vessel treatment with an unapproved device, directional or rotational coronary atherectomy, laser, cutting balloon or transluminal extraction catheter immediately prior to stent placement
  • Myocardial infarction (MI) within 72 hours prior to index procedure
  • Cerebrovascular accident (CVA) within the past 6 months
  • Cardiogenic shock
  • Acute or chronic renal dysfunction
  • Prior anaphylactic reaction to contrast agents
  • +37 more criteria

Limitations and Caveats

There were no commercially available dedicated small vessel paclitaxel-eluting stents at the time of study enrollment, thus, the PERSEUS Small Vessel comparator group does not represent the most recently available paclitaxel-eluting stents.
